Subject: Variable definition for *UBIN data type
Hi,
In a CL program, I'm using a RCVMSG command to receive message CPC2955.
This message is the completion message sent after a successful CPYF command
and looks something like this. "2 records copied from member MYMEMBER".
I'm trying to retrieve the record count from the message data. That field
is defined as length 4 type *UBIN in the message definition. How would I
define this variable in a CL program? I can switch the program to CLLE if
needed. We are on 7.4 of the OS. TIA
